Tim and Ammi

I have many special friends back home, but two of them lately deserve special mention. Tim and Ammi are close mates of mine, both Sth African (Tim is also a new Australian) and very much in love with each other.

Though I do not write to them personally often enough (lately was too gutted by Australia's narrow loss to Sth Africa in the Tri-Nations to bear hearing them celebrate :-) they, with Ros and Graeme, Nat and Nathan, Tim and Tegan, Sue and Scott, Kinsey, Ness and Andrei, Jess, and Lynley are often in my thoughts (I wasn't going to name names but there you go).

If anyone wants to see why I wish I had Tim's gift for photography, I'd encourage you to look at his blog, linked to this site (right side list of links). He has captured country NSW beautifully and the scent the musty red earth, crushed insects and eucalypts.
